I think it is funny how Mike and his chronies complain about PPMs and how they under-report his audience. Let's see...fat, middle-aged men with no wives and minimal income. Wonder why advertisers aren't interested in them? Yes, I guess 7-11 and Taco Bell could be potential advertisers. But, really, I think most fat, middle-aged men with no wives know where their local 7-11 or Taco Bell is without the help of ads on the radio, right?

Finally had a chance to listen to it. He was talking about his insurance and rates going up and getting some debt relief. I think he may be contemplating some sort of bankruptcy filing. Apparently there are a couple of scenarios where he can file and still keep his house, as long as he continues making payments...

http://www.moranlaw.net/house_after_bankruptcy.htm

There also appears to be certain conditions by which you can keep a car after filing for bankruptcy...

http://www.bankrate.com/brm/news/bankruptcy/20080422-auto-debt-a1.asp

Given that his credit rating would be fucked for about a decade if he is filing, this could explain why Mike got two new vehicles.

Of course, this is all speculation. At the same time, he put this out there, so it is open to conjecture.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

If Mike declares bankruptcy it's going to be awfully hard for him to live beyond his means on credit. I believe you are forced to seek credit counseling before you are allowed to file chapter 7, so perhaps they will set Mike straight and keep him from fucking himself any further.

Mike: Hi, I'm radio's Mike O'Meara I'm kind of a big deal as you know. I would like to elude the mountain of debt that I have racked up over the past couple of years, so just show me where to sign.

Councilor: Not so fast fat ass, let's take a look at your finances...

5 hours later

Mike: So what your saying is that I can't spend more money than I make? I should be saving a portion of my salary? I shouldn't take vacations using cash advanced from my credit cards?

Councilor: YES, now pay your bill and get the fuck out of my office!

Mike: Do you take Discover?

I just wonder what the story is on his old restaurant/pub. Sounds like he had been the guarantor on the lease. I wonder if he sub-leased the space to the restaurant that had been there (which went out of business a week or two ago) or if he managed to get that restaurant's owner to buy-out his lease. I have a feeling it may be the former, which would explain how his bad financial situation seems to be even more dire now.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

I think you nailed it! Looks like the only rent he's getting at this point would be from Carla's boss. Not sure about the house in FL. His monthly nut must be terrific at this point. I'll bet he has some serious delinquencies right about now.

Congratulations, Mike! What is it, three weeks now? Four?



Don't worry, though. You are still ahead of God Talk WAVA, Communist-supporting WPFW, and the static-ridden signals of stations in Fredericksburg and Winchester!

At least you don't have the sucky ratings of the formerly employed Ballard. Er, wait. He was 13th place.

Nevermind. I'm sure you will continue to be a big success!

If the Kirk & Mike Show was a ship, it'd be a slowly sinking one. She's taking on water none the less, they'll be slowly settling on the bottom soon. Hopefully Kirk will be thrown a life preserver and get his afternoon gig back, maybe that's why the position hasn't been filled yet? One thing is for sure, Cap'n O'Meara will be going down with the ship.

Nothing like having to drive 66, 495 and then 95 (and back) ever day for nothing. Face it...his stint with Kirk is really like a job through a temp agency. It's probably more of a pain than it's worth, it puts a small dent in the financial back up, but it'll be over in a few months.

I listened to the show a bit this morning (maybe he will be in 20th place on the next report?) Anyway, Kirk said he was on the verge of being homeless last November. It would be a shame if fat-ass dragged a decent guy down with him (again).

What? You guys didn't like the "Let's take callers to make up nicknames for Shamrock" bit? Nothing beats radio bits that consist of nothing but non-professional "comedians" calling in and trying to be funny about a secondary member of a morning zoo team with no real obvious flaws on a show that's been running for a month or so and gets low ratings.

Isn't "Shamrock" his nickname?

As for the show, this is why it gets shitty ratings. While I enjoy classic rock, the real audience for this format is 40- and 50-something guys with some sort of technical training. In other words, you have a bunch of mechanics, sheet rockers, press operators, carpenters, etc, who have the station on in the background while they are doing work. The point is to have music in the background. Not a fat fuck yammering on about himself in some morning zoo format.

I was a big fan of AOR in the 80s. I don't remember any of those morning programs being "morning zoo" formats. They were usually Cerphe-type guys playing records and chiming in once in a while. What the Edge has is a mismatch of two formats. THAT is why it sucks (not just Mike's involvement).

You're right - the appeal of The Edge was that it gave you all rock music in the mornings. It was a nice change to listen to when you grew tired of the WTOP or Elliott in the Morning or Junkies or Mickey/Amelia (98 Rock) all talk morning shows. I heard a number of complaints from Edge listeners for the first several weeks about the lack of music. At least Kirk and Mike play some music throughout the morning but to be successful, I think they need to play more. I think Mike is funny but is too long-winded and opinionated about things he knows nothing about - like exercising.

Fact:

Mike will die alone, fat and broke. There is no helping a man that's on a perpetual downward spiral. Beautiful Carla needs to cut the cord and leave this raging alcoholic, repeat divorcer, chronic spender and morbidly obese man that will be buried in a piano crate in the next few years.

As for me, I deserve good things, I am entitled to my share of happiness. I refuse to beat myself up. I am an attractive person. I am fun to be with. :)

Yes, Stuart. You're good enough, you're smart enough, and darn it, people like you!

Let's see if they like Robb if he manages to get on The Biggest Loser. Yes, that's the latest plan from the O'Meara gang. Robb could not only lose some weight, he could take the podcast to a whole new level!

I agree,,,this could be podcast gold

It would make MOM crazy if Rob(b) not only lost 100lbs,,but also won $250G

How come the Kirk and lazy fat fuck show seems to start at 5:20 a.m. instead of 5 a.m.?
Did it start out that way or accommodating the lazy fat fuck?

It seems to me a bit of format on the show less of the lazy fat fuck over talking and more music or is that wishful thinking on my part?

I listened to the podcast for about a month after it first started back in December(?) of 09. after a month i stopped listening and itunes stopped my automatic downloads. after about an 8-month hiatus i began listening to the podcast again starting last week just to see how it was going. i have to admit that the product is much improved. just my opinion

I agree, they have it down to a science now...

I love the wacky contrived bits that kick off the show. Somehow they manage to make it sound poorly prepared, yet spontaneous, topped off with a dash of spurious laughter and voilà.

Then it's time for Mike's bitch session. Boohoo, I'm poor now, boy the economy/Obama has really screwed me.

Now perhaps a special guest, i.e. a "sponsor" who will now hurriedly deliver their spiel all while slowly coming to the realization that they just blew their advertising money on nothing.

It's time for Rob(b)'s audio vault, a collection of YouTube clips that he found while drunkenly browsing the internet in his comfy bath robe last night.

Finally, Buzz's news. Listen intently as Buzz stumbles his way through articles from the Huffington Post that he printed out this morning. Pepper that with some random sex/pot news from the police blotter and there you have it, all the news that's fit to talk over.

Has it been an hour already, well the o'l egg timer is going off so you know what that means let's play the stolen production music and remind you not to rebroadcast this piece of shit. Gay!

I especially like Buzz's timely coverage of the fire-breathing bartenders at Jimmy's Old Town Tavern being charged with felonies. His report ran two weeks after every other major news outlet in the DC area (and some national outlets) covered it.

Did I mention that Jimmy's Old Town Tavern is a MOM sponsor? Like...did Buzz ever think about breaking a fucking story in his own backyard?

Kirk = Mornings

Cerphe = Afternoons

Mike = Unemployed again

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

That would be the logical choice...

It would save money, increase ratings, oh and give the listenership what they want i.e. classic rock, not a blabbering fat man. I think you analysis of wvrx's key demo was spot on, and those people don't really care to listen to Mike's thoughts on Weight Watchers or Justin Bieber. Kirk fits the bill adequately, he's proven himself in the afternoons and his contract won't break the bank to renew.

Cerphe will be a nice addition to the team. If he does get the gig maybe he can splurge on an updated hairpiece. I do like Cerphe though...

Cerphe says "cool" way too much. But, yeah, he's a hell of a lot better than Mike.

I was listening to Carolla today. His show is light-years ahead of what MOM is trying to do. Carolla is a naturally funny guy who can take any subject and turn it into a funny 10 minute rant off the top of his head. Mike just doesn't have that ability and he is too lazy to prep good material ahead of time (especially now).

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

How many cameras were on him?

I think Cerphe would fit in there pretty well. It really was a station I turned to when I just wanted to listen to music in the morning instead of Elliot. I don't even bother with the Junkies anymore. I still have JFK in my presets so I might hit it looking through stations every once in a while but I just have no desire to hear all that sports talk all the time (and I tried for quite a while--I get my sports from what I watch and the few articles I read here and there and that's just all I need, sorry), and when it's the Junkies I literally hear one of them talk for a few seconds and it's time to flip to another station. "To hell with this, I'd rather hear commercials."

I don't listen to the Junkies because they are a bunch of fucking morons.

When I want to hear sports, I listen to Czab and Abe. I will blow my fucking brains out before I listen to LaVar try to pronounce any word ever again. I've never heard a guy who not only misuses or mispronounces words, but who also adds consonants to a word where they don't belong.

God, I love this site - I listened to the tired musings of Blamey O'Meara a couple of times on the air on 105.9 and I wish I never found him again. What a whiny fat bitch! Yeah, Mike for the 1000th time - fart sounds do not take the place of having talent, nobody gives a fuck about the Red Sox, and your eating and driving adventures, including the pontificating about that tramautized motorcycle you sit your fat ass on, are way past their shelf life. And way to go, ending the show before 9:00am - not surprised that the phone it in shit has started up again.

Ok, I made the mistake of listening to the failcast today. It just makes me angry these days to listen to Mike.

So Mike was overdrawn today. Of course he blames the bank for this mistake! He may "take his business elsewhere". What's even funnier is that he's running out of money before his next check comes in. At Citadel he's paid every two weeks his next check comes on the 3rd. He deposited a rent check yesterday (into his account with a negative balance) and was wondering why it didn't clear instantaneously. This guy is over 50 years old, can he really be this irresponsible?

This is lesson 1 in being a grownup 101, and he failed miserably. Ok so he fucked up, everyone does, but to blame it on the bank? So he's buying new cars, taking vacations, etc. all while living paycheck to paycheck (if that). O'Meara deserves every bit of what life is about to throw at him.

Sounds plausible, I was thinking he had some BPD tendencies as well.

I'd like to open this discussion up to the group. Would anyone else care to classify O'Meara's form of mental illness? DSM codes please.

I think that Mike may also suffer from "intermittent explosive disorder" ("IED" as an acronym couldn't be more appropriate.) Mike's barely contained rage bubbles under the surface at all times. The jokes about Mike getting mad at the rest of the cast of the MOM are not false bits.

This could definitely be Mike: "Impulsive aggression is unpremeditated, and is defined by a disproportionate reaction to any provocation, real or perceived."

I think he's just an alcoholic.

There's a reason why fat and short people are the biggest narcissists. It's to compensate for the fact they are fat and/or short.

Heard Don discussing his incredible ratings after 2 months and answering a caller by saying he would be embarrassed if he returned and had no impact.

LIKE MIKE

To be clear, Don did not mention Mike. But wonder how fatso Mr Manassas feels about his new show on the air debuting about the same time as Don's, has fallen to #21?

Last week, Don said something along the lines of "if I didn't put the effort into doing a good show for the radio every day, I'd be doing a podcast-only show." Again, no mention of Mike, but I wondered if Don had him in mind when he made that remark.

Yep, uh oh Wrote:

Doubt it was personal. Just a reflection that podcast are a dime a dozen and not
enough motivation to produce a really good show, basically because there is not any direct contact with your audience or timely feedback.

Yes. No doubt.

Look at it this way. If Don was really supportive of these guys, he would have appeared on their podcast. The fact he won't do a simple phone-in speaks volumes. I'm sure Don has no respect for Mike's morning zoo shtick.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

Mike's show is, after all, everything that Don hates. How Mike worked with Don for 23 years and still does the morning zoo shtick -- seriously does it -- amazes me.

It's amazing that I once thought Mike was the more talented of the duo with Don.

I heard Mike's rant against the bank. I guess Mike's inability to balance a checkbook means we are no longer free. The guy is a complete absurdity now.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

Don's show is everything that mom's pod cast tries to be. Its smooth and thoughtful and has something more to offer than a bunch of guys sitting around mike's living room. I feel bad for anyone who invests even 5 minutes in it. Sorry Buzz and Robb but the gravy train is now in Sac town.

Amazing, wasn't it? It was classic MOM angst.

For anyone who didn't hear it, Mike ranted about his bank charging him an overdraft fee. Mike had deposited a cashier's check the day before, thinking it would go right into his account.

Wrong. If you get a cashier's check drawn on funds from another bank (Bank A) and you take it to your bank (Bank B) and deposit it, you have to wait for it clear, the same as you would for any other check.

Also, banks today are having big problems with fraudulent cashier checks, so most banks have a policy that if the check is over a certain amount (e.g. $2,000) they have to put a hold on it, until they can check it out.

The problem isn't the banks -- it's the scammers. And in this case, it's also Mike's lack of knowledge.

Hey Mike, instead of overhauling the entire banking system, why don't you learn something about your bank's policies?

But no, this is further proof (in Mike's mind) of how we are "not free," and nothing is ever his fault.

It's also proof that he thinks the same rules that apply to everyone else don't apply to him.

Just think of how much money he's made over his career. He had to have been pulling in 200K a year at least for the last 10 years. And to now be in such bad shape? That amazes me. The epitome of irresponsibility. If I made 200K for only 3 years I'd be in better shape than that clown.

Last contract w/ Don he made over $1mil a year. (Don made over $2mil) What a lazy fuck Mike is. Pretty obvious that the curtain has been pulled back and Don really DID everything, even coming up with whatever bits Mike did, cause he can't do them now. And how the fuck does one waste that kind of dough????

I've been wondering the same thing. Seems strange that Mike is starting the Edge show later and leaving earlier.

Last Thursday, during the podcast, Mike abruptly announced that the gang wouldn't be doing a Friday show. He didn't offer any explanation. I wondered if he had to stay at 105.9 for a meeting, if something was going on there.

That Saturday, Mike and the gang had a promotional event at Hooters. Mike admitted on Monday's podcast that he drank and ate too much (and gained back 7 of the 11 pounds that he lost).

Wonder if he was indulging in some comfort eating/drinking? Sounds like he's stressed out. Maybe he knows the 105.9 job is about to go.

Did Mike say the cashier's check was a rent check? Usually you use a cashier's check when you are buying something. I'm wondering if Mike sold his vehicles to individuals using cashier's checks in order to get more liquidity? I mean, a down payment on a lease is, what, $3K? And with a Dodge Charger, it's possible he got the car with zero down given the state of the auto industry these days. He could have sold the two vehicles for $10K or $15K to get the cash and then just dug himself deeper in debt to replace them.

Just an unsubstantiated theory.

Lady Baltimore quoted Mike as saying he'd gained back 7 of the 11 pounds he lost in one night. That is exactly the kind of spin bullshit he ran for years on D&M about his dieting, and it was always based on shit like this. You don't gain 7 pounds overnight. Plus he talks on 105.9 about exercise, like he knows about it.
Just stop eating so much and knock off the drinking. Oh wait, that would require self discipline. Never mind.

If he was still "free," he would have no problems with his weight. "They" make him eat.

Even Craig's list warns people about the potential fraud involving cashier checks.
He did say it was "rent". Could be for the restaurant space or maybe his place in Florida.

I'm sure Mike has won lots of money in AC, too. Just ignore the fact he lost even more in order to win what he won.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

Excellent observation!

The nexus of events clearly signifies that something is going down. Let's watch Mike's actions over the next couple of weeks to see how his plan of action unfolds. Perhaps he'll be hosting a yard sale this weekend to add a little more money to the kitty.
Looks like a long, cold winter is coming up for this bloated grasshopper. Good thing he has the failcast to con the ants, that is, the "fans" out of some more dough.

Considering he is on the air for just over three hours, and they play music and commercials for most of that time, the guy can't figure out how to fill the few minutes he has left?

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

So Mike pretty much has a zero bank balance... not surprising.

All this time and energy that was put into the podcast could have went toward gainful employment... just as everybody on here has been stating for months. Oscar Santana is a smart guy, but his idea to get MOM to do a podcast was a lame-brained idea. You'd think he'd know that Adam Carolla's podcast with it's much larger listenership doesn't even make any money. I'm not sure what Oscar's motivation was... maybe to test the podcast experiment out on Mike first and let him be the ginea pig, before he jumped into a podcast with Dukes. I guess Santana will learn from the mistakes made on Mike's podcast.

As for Mike's money situation.... any future O'Meara household expenditures need to be reviewed by America's favorite financial lesbian, Suze Orman. She'll need to move in with Mike and watch him like a hawk 24 hours a day, approving or denying every purchase.

Oh that's why he cut down "The Power of Five" to "The Power of Three". He had to fit it into shorter segments between music blocks. That boy certainly can adapt, if nothing else.

If I remember right, Oscar was still employed behind the scenes (and still is maybe?), so he really had little to lose doing the podcast and it keeps him out there doing what he wants to do anyways, even if it makes no money. I don't know if there was bad blood between him and Dukes after the old show finished or Dukes just wasn't "allowed" to do a podcast or what before, but whatever it is it's apparently water under the bridge now.

how long before he brings out the " water cooler chalange" . The show just needs fresh ideas. running the same old soundboard with a morning zoo content is dead.

Good one Ted, but I don't even think Suze could take it.

"This is Dr. Hartley speaking..."

"Mike who?... O'Meara?... I've never heard of you sir."

"Overeating, drinking and compulsive spending... I might be able to help you."

"You do what?.... What's a podcast?... Never heard of you sir."

"105.9... Yea... I hear that nobody listens to that station in the morning."

"Don Geronimo... Yea, I know who he is... but who are you?"

"Put down the donut if it's going to make you cry.... Once again... I've never heard of you sir."

"Spewak?... What's a Spewak?... Sounds like a sexual dysfunction."

"She's how many years younger than you?... Sounds like a prescription for disaster."

"No, I can't waive your overdraft fees... You have to call the bank for that... Who are you again?"

"Hello?"

"Uh, Hello?"

It sure seems like the management at The Edge has cut down on the lazy fat fuck's babbling with more music and less talk in the last week or so

Perhaps you all missed this little nugget in the last hour of The Edge show a few days back. The discussion started with Slash getting a divorce and how Slash didn't have a pre-nup with his wife. Well the lazy fat fuck unable to shut his pie hole admitted he had a pre-nup with Carla. What the hell for? He's on fumes now, if they get divorced does she get to share his debts? Man that's some woman to put up with all that shit from the lazy fat fuck! where can I find an attractive woman like that who'll put up with all my irresponsible shit. Or why does she put up with it?
Do you think the bar debts are protected from his personal assets thru a corp like lazy fat fuck, inc.?

"Hello.. Mike Who?... Do you realize what time it is?"

"Emily and I are trying to sleep... Shouldn't you be at work?"

"Uh no... I still don't know who you are."

"Now Mike.. You need to get to work on time. Your new bosses would probably appreciate it."

"You probably shouldn't call them those names... After all, they did take the chance to hire you... No Mike, I still don't know who you are."

"The dog poops a lot?... Maybe you should take him out for a walk... Seems like the simplest solution, and you need the exercise too."

"No... I didn't say you were fat."

"You don't need to threaten me with physical violence Mr. O'Malley... That won't solve a thing."

"Hello? Hello? Uh Hello?"

EMILY: Who was it Bob?

BOB: That Mike guy again. Apparently he thinks he's a famous radio personality. I'm not sure what his deal is. Go back to bed Emily.

Coming up on a third of a million views on this thread... Somehow I doubt there have been that many hits on his failcast since its inception.

I'm sure Mike's pre-nup is as well written as the contract that leaves him stuck paying the rent on this former restaurant's location. If he get's a divorce, she probably gets both of his kidneys in addition to half of nothing.

She deserves something after having to be mounted by that fat fuck for all of these years. Can you imagine? *shudder*

I believe that's what's keeping her around. The plus side of the relationship is that Carla banks her entire paycheck, and Mike foots the bill for all household expenses. She even has separate checking and savings accounts in her name only. So other than her car payment, she spends $0. I think once she builds up a nice nest egg and/or she simply can't take anymore of Mike, she will take a trip to a local lawyer (I'm sure she knows a few good ones, given her line of work). I think that a lawyer would make a nice target for her future gold digging efforts, good salary, spends a lot of time at work, etc. I'm sure she has thought of that already...

That is really some relationship. She keeps everything she makes, plus gets free room and board. I wonder if she has threatened to leave him if he loses the house? Man, this guy has put his balls in a vice for pussy (I am sure much less pussy now than before they were married).

http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

Yesterday, Mike was late for his own podcast. He was just pulling into the driveway as the guys were starting the show. Looks like he had another long meeting at 105.9

He said, "If they want to fire me, they'll have a heck of a mess to clean up because they're getting me involved in so many things!" (or words to that effect)

He tried to put a positive spin on it as usual.

I'm just guessing here, but my take is that the management folks at the Edge want Mike (and Kirk) to do some appearances/promotional events to help boost the ratings. The pressure is on!

(They obviously don't care if they make him late to his podcast either. Looks like they are demanding more of Mike's time and attention whether he likes it or not.)

It's about fucken time...

I think Kenny is a bright guy and has a decent track record, but he has dropped the ball when it comes to Mike's management. He should have been on his ass from the second Mike waddled off the elevator. They should have done a full court press, including appearances starting the day of the first show. Instead they did a "free lunch" downtown and that was that. Is it possible management is grasping at straws, and trying in a last ditch effort to garner some ROI from the chance they took on what will be known as "The O'Meara Debacle". Too little, way too late.

Maybe they realized the show didn't have much potential early on and didn't want to sink much effort into it. But for christ sakes man, this is your am drive offering? Can't wait for the new 105.9 WMAL-FM!

And this was followed by a prolonged sales pitch for the "goddamn fantastic" NEW MIKE O'MEARA SHOW HATS, AVAILABLE IN JUST TWO WEEKS

Why not just get a sharpie and write "loser" on your forehead?

How can you be late for recording a podcast? Or does it have to be done in time to air on KCJJ?

The problem with that theory is that Rob(b) doesn't have a job (or any other means of income) as he's still banking on this thing with Mike to really take off. A shift at DQ is a step up.

Rob(b) wouldn't actually make your Blizzard. He would go to a different DQ, pick up the Blizzard and claim he made it. Kind of like how he does the Audio Vault.

"Rob(b) has to have some kind of income by now, doesn't he?"

Yeah, it is call leeching off of his wife.

If it wasn't for her, they wouldn't even have health insurance for their sick kid. It is fitting that her name is Carrie, becasue she is Carrying that entire family.

Maybe someday Carrying Spewak will wise up and make Rob get a real job.

Say he has 1,000 idiots who purchase his bonus! shows at 2.00 a week. 8.00 a month. Jeez, SiriusXM is close in price. Let's round it off to around $80g a year, and I think Im being generous. Minus the costs involved -bandwith- $30g. Leaves 50. Mike takes his half, 25G$. That leaves 25$g for Rob(b) Buzz Oscar and the rest to chew on. And Im quite sure my numbers far over reflect what lard ass and his failcast are actually bringing in. After hearing Mike continually bitch and moan about basic shit like his mortgage and bouncing checks, maybe they are doing far worse. Sound like it, but I bet there are at least 1000 retards out there. But what he is doing is trashing and long lasting good memories from the Don&Mike show. He is selling out to the highest regard. Or to 80g$? How the fuck can the others keep their heads above water? I have heard Adam Corolla ! #1 podcast, REALLY MIKE ! mention HE can't make money with the venture. What say you?

That looks more like Rob(b) from behind. As much of a failure as Mike is, at least he hasn't let his hygiene go. Can't say the same for Rob(b). I doubt he has showered since the first Raw promotion flopped.

I can't stand all of the junior accountants on this site. You are trying to generate some kind of detailed breakdown of O'meara's finances when you don't have any information to base it on whatsoever.

The podcast is probably not making much money, if it is even making any at all. If it is not making enough to sustain itself, then the show will end. Pretty simple. Can't you just stick to bitching about how shitty the show is and wait and see if Mike gives it up or not? I don't need to see your detailed breakdown of the financial situation with numbers that you pulled straight out of your ass.

wah wah wah

Of course the podcast is making no money. Mike was hit with overdraft fees last week and he says he is broke. DUH.

Yes, Mike is broke, and it makes for an even shittier show. During the podcast last week, (I can't remember what day's show it was) the fine folks at at&t called him on his cell looking for him to make a payment. He went into some line of BS that he couldn't talk to them now because he was in the middle of doing a "radio" show. He told the rep from at&t that he would "take care of it" that afternoon. I wonder if at&t ever got their money... they'll probably need to get in line with everybody else.

It's just so funny that the ego driven, money draining pursuit of the podcast continues... but the more important issue of household finances go on the back burner. It shows you where the man's priorities are.

Here is a breakdown of Mike's finances...

$0.00

Actually, it's probably way in the negative territory. Regardless, the guy is still trying to have the lifestyle he did when he was making decent coin during the D&M days. He should have gone with the more conservative lifestyle, but didn't. Hell, Don, who had the real money in the partnership, unloaded his house in Maryland and his place in Florida after he called it quits. Mike, though, wants to live the Lifestyle of the Rich and Famous, though he is certainly not rich and is becoming considerably less "famous" with each passing day.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
http://bible.cc/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

His new "ad campaign" sure is blowing up!

Rob(b) Spewak Career Fair...

I think we should take this opportunity to introduce Rob(b) to the myriad of job opportunities that await him once the failcast goes belly up and his unemployment benefits run out...




See what a degree from VCU will get you? UVA? Virginia Tech? Pish posh!

Let's really take a look at Rob(b)'s skill set...

CBS Radio, Chief Intern:

- Can operate an analog mixer, and had a brief stint with the new digital control surface in the junkies studio just before the end.
Any teenage kid who has ever been a member of a garage band can say the same. More importantly when it comes to scheduling/automation software he has no clue. So that's a fail.

-He has a horrible voice. I think anyone would admit that Rob(b)'s voice is not airworthy. So that rules out promos and imaging of any kind.

-He's witty. Well, he's witty like an annoying high school drama kid that you instinctively want to punch every time he opens his mouth. So he's got that going for him.

-He's been in "radio" for the past X years. We have all observed his painful, overt failures time and time again. If he was unable to produce a show with his hero Don holding his hand it certainly ain't happening now.

-He can clean a cart machine with one of those long q-tips. Win!, oh wait those things aren't around anymore.

Would anyone else care to pad his résumé, I'm stumped?

He was in radio long enough to be a "Danger Boy" character who saw his intern, CK, promoted through the ranks to becoming his boss. With the exception of his brief stint on air with MOM, Rob(b) was always a "Danger Boy" character. He was an unsuccessful producer.

So, no, I have no idea what skills Rob(b) has that would provide him with any gainful employment besides cleaning dishes at a Red Robin.

If this site is biting the dust in a few weeks? Any place else this glorious thread could be posted so it can continue?

I hate facebook

God, listening to Mike bitch this morning about almost being late because he had to stop and put the trash out before he left was so hilarious and infuriating.

Hey, fat fuck, set your alarm for 5 minutes earlier and then getting to work on time won't come down to a matter of minutes....

Ever hear of putting it out the night before? Like most normal people do?
